<p>i don't know whether to be creeped out that they remembered (or learned) my last name in the five seconds i briefly met them or be impressed that they spelled my name right when searching for me.</p>
<p>anyone slightly weirded out by something like this? i just came home today from this conference thing, and i've already gotten a bajillion requests...from people i barely spoke five words to or didn't even talk to at all!</p>
<p>Just put them on limited profile.</p>
<p>Oh, I thought you meant like looking up all your childhood friends. Cuz I do that. Haha, it's fun :)</p>
<p>But yeah, I hate it when you're friends online with people that you didn't even say hi to in the halls. I mean, come on...who are they kidding when they send you that friend request?</p>
<p>Or people who facebook people they haven't actually met?</p>
<p>My bf started one of those "College X '10" groups on myspace last year. Many of the people from that group added him on facebook before the school year started. The weird part though? The first weekend I visited him at school, I was greeted by several people I'd never met before, who neither of us knew. "Hey! You're (his myspace username)'s girlfriend! Nice to meet you!" Some even went as far as commenting on my prom dress, or other pictures of me. It was totally bizarre.</p>
<p>I don't remember anyone's name, even friends of mine, so I don't have the ability to do it. I don't get freaked out though; it's not like they're asking to hang out or something, it's just facebook.</p>
<p>They just have really good memories. :D </p>
<p>Actually, the friending people in the Class of 20__ group is not too bad. A little awkward when you meet them in person, but you've met people by the time you get there. Although I have to say it's weird that they paid that much attention to the profiles. I wouldn't go up to someone's boy/girlfriend that I don't know.</p>
<p>yeah, i have a lot of facebook friends from the class of 2011 group... when i went to orientation, i saw people i recognized from there. it wasn't awkward at all. the girl i roomed with actually said "oh, you're from new jersey right? i recognize you." but that's totally different from walking up to someone and randomly saying "your grad night looked really fun" or "your boyfriend is hot in his tux from prom...i like his haircut" or "you saw the white stripes on july 24... how were they?" or something.</p>
<p>sadly, i feel flattered when people actually remember me enough to do it.</p>
<p>The amount of "friends" I have compared to others really makes me look like an anti-social. I could have 57 in one network while another person could have 207. Sheesh, I gotta get clickin'.</p>
<p>Yeah, I know what you mean. It was worse when I had a myspace (I actually deleted it for that reason). People who I hadn't seen since 6th grade added me as a friend and actually messaged me ("Hey! Remember me?!"). And they were people I wouldn't really consider friends, either. I guess having myspace and facebook friends is just that important.</p>
<p>Why do I think you're fabricating a little?</p>
<p>Who, me? What's so unbelievable about people from 6th grade finding you online?</p>
<p>yeah, I find people from middle school on myspace and face book all the time. it's fun.</p>
